    Question 2 step search - find results in search result

    Hi forum, I'm new here and I've been having a problem to do a 2 step search.
    Let me (try to) explain:

    I've got 2 tables I need to compare

    Table A (30 records)
    name, Street, zip, town, Value 1

    Table B (50000 records)
    name, Street, zip, town

    Step 1 - Compare the following to narrow it down
    street, zip, town

    Step 2 - once I've got a search result of step 1
    compare the names from Table A with the result form Step 1

    Step 3
    Write the results from step 2 including "Value 1" of the Table A
    name, street, zip, town, Value 1

    I think I need to do 2 steps becuase the [name] in table A is mixed. I only have 1 filed called [name]. It can be [firstname] [lastname], [lastname] [firstname], [firstname] [second name] [lastname] etc..

    That's just my approach. The main problem is that name field. If theres a way to do a wildcard search just for the name and and exact match for street, zip and town I'd be more than happy to do it in 1 step.

    Thank you for your input.
